Re: [gnome-love] Setting up a development environment

OK ... I've been on the fence about Arch for a long time ... Now I'm going to finally give it a shot just because of the GNOME comments here.  Thanks!

+1  You get the latest development environment using "tarballs" for
free.  So you can easily develop against the latest release.
Definitely worth checking out. Arch is always the first distro out of
the gate with a pure GNOME experience after a release.  Usually within
2 weeks.  Within 1 week, you have it in testing repo.
